Drupal modules for a single-user blog

I've been asked a few times what modules I'm running on the drupal installs I'm tending.

Site #1 is domesticat.net, a single-user blog running under 6.x, currently 6.8, with comments enabled.  Site #2 is a firewalled company intranet focused heavily around the concept of using organic groups, has since been written up here.

Modules that are installed but unused because I haven't configured them yet are bolded. Modules that I will turn back on the moment I've got a bugfix are italicized.

I'm undoubtedly missing some fantastic ones, but these are the ones I know about and rely on.

content_access - permits the restriction of access to content based on content type or user role
